We chose this apartment because other reviewers said there was a lot of boat action on the canal in the mornings, and we loved it. Venice is unique because of its canals and boats and we wanted to see that part of Venice life. We were fascinated by the boat delivery system, boat trash pickup, gondolas passing by, and neighbors parking their boats on the canal and then stepping directly into their houses through a door on the waterline. We hung our laundry out over the canal and exchanged smiles and waves with a neighbor doing the same.
Every room has huge windows and there is more than one balcony, which is great!
This is a great location very close to both the Fte Nove and C’ D’Oro vaporetto stops, easy to explore Venice or the outer islands. There’s a grocery around the corner, great to bring food home to cook in the apartment.
We felt cozy and happy here. All the daytime activity dies down and it is super quiet at night, perfect for sleep and recharge.
Attilia, the host, lives in the building and is very kind and helpful. Even when we accidentally broke the apartment key off in the lock, he was super patient and kind about it, and we really appreciated that.
